Description

Essentials about the Vancouver Lookout in brief

The skyline and surroundings of Vancouver are certainly among the most beautiful panoramas in the world. If you want to get probably the best view of the city from downtown, you should drive up to the Vancouver Lookout. The Lookout is a revolving tower on the roof of the Harbour Centre skyscraper, which stands on the border of Downtown Vancouver and the historic Gastown district. From the platform of the Vancouver Lookout, you have a fabulous 360-degree panoramic view of the city and its surrounding waters and mountains.

The architecture of the Vancouver Lookout

The Harbour Centre and the Lookout were completed in 1977. The Lookout is located at a height of 169 meters. The building was the tallest structure in Vancouver until 2009, when it was replaced by the completion of the Living Shangri-La skyscraper at over 200 meters. If you want a very special viewing experience, you should book a table in the tower’s revolving restaurant. This way, a constantly changing panorama can be enjoyed during a meal.
